Responses
200

"Vcenter NamespaceManagement SupervisorServices CheckResult Object"
string
status
Required

Indicates if the provided content is valid.

For more information see: Vcenter NamespaceManagement SupervisorServices ValidationStatus.

This property was added in vSphere API 7.0.3.0.

string
content_type
Optional

The type of the provided content. When this content_type is Vcenter NamespaceManagement SupervisorServices Versions ContentType.CUSTOM_YAML, the status is always VALID because a custom format is not validated.

For more information see: Vcenter NamespaceManagement SupervisorServices Versions ContentType.

This property was added in vSphere API 7.0.3.0.

If missing or null, the content type cannot be determined from the provided content.

vsphere_apps_check_result
Optional

The information about the Supervisor Service version retrieved from the provided content as a result of validation checks if the content is in the vSphere application format.

This property was added in vSphere API 7.0.3.0.

If missing or null, the content is not in the vSphere application service format, or the status is INVALID.

carvel_apps_check_result
Optional

The information about the Supervisor Service version retrieved from the provided content as a result of validation checks if the content is in the Carvel application format.

This property was added in vSphere API 8.0.0.1.

If missing or null, the content is not in the Carvel application package format, or the status is INVALID.

array of object
warning_messages
Optional

A list of messages indicating why the content was considered valid but contains information that should be reviewed closely.

This property was added in vSphere API 7.0.3.0.

This property is optional and it is only relevant when the value of status is Vcenter NamespaceManagement SupervisorServices ValidationStatus.VALID_WITH_WARNINGS.

array of object
error_messages
Optional

A list of messages indicating why the content was considered invalid.

This property was added in vSphere API 7.0.3.0.

This property is optional and it is only relevant when the value of status is Vcenter NamespaceManagement SupervisorServices ValidationStatus.INVALID.


400

if the provided spec is invalid. For example, the provided Vcenter NamespaceManagement SupervisorServices ContentCheckSpec.content is empty or not base64 encoded.

Returns Vapi Std Errors InvalidArgument of type(s) application/json
This response body class contains all of the following: InlineVapi Std Errors InvalidArgument0
"Vapi Std Errors InvalidArgument Object"

401

if the user cannot be authenticated.

Returns Vapi Std Errors Unauthenticated of type(s) application/json
This response body class contains all of the following: InlineVapi Std Errors Unauthenticated0
"Vapi Std Errors Unauthenticated Object"
string
challenge
Optional

Indicates the authentication challenges applicable to the target API provider. It can be used by a client to discover the correct authentication scheme to use. The exact syntax of the value is defined by the specific provider, the protocol and authentication schemes used.

For example, a provider using REST may adhere to the WWW-Authenticate HTTP header specification, RFC7235, section 4.1. In this case an example challenge value may be: SIGN realm="27da1358-2ba4-11e9-b210-d663bd873d93",sts="http://vcenter/sso?vsphere.local", Basic realm="vCenter"

This property was added in vSphere API 7.0.0.0.

This property is optional because it was added in a newer version than its parent node.


403

if the user does not have the System.Read privilege.

Returns Vapi Std Errors Unauthorized of type(s) application/json
This response body class contains all of the following: InlineVapi Std Errors Unauthorized0
"Vapi Std Errors Unauthorized Object"

500

if the system reports an error while responding to the request.

Returns Vapi Std Errors Error of type(s) application/json
"Vapi Std Errors Error Object"
array of object
messages
Required

Stack of one or more localizable messages for human error consumers.

The message at the top of the stack (first in the list) describes the error from the perspective of the operation the client invoked.

Each subsequent message in the stack describes the "cause" of the prior message.

object
data
Optional

Data to facilitate clients responding to the operation reporting a standard error to indicating that it was unable to complete successfully.

Operations may provide data that clients can use when responding to errors. Since the data that clients need may be specific to the context of the operation reporting the error, different operations that report the same error may provide different data in the error. The documentation for each each operation will describe what, if any, data it provides for each error it reports.

The Vapi Std Errors ArgumentLocations, Vapi Std Errors FileLocations, and Vapi Std Errors TransientIndication schemas are intended as possible values for this property. Vapi Std DynamicID may also be useful as a value for this property (although that is not its primary purpose). Some resources may provide their own specific schemas for use as the value of this property when reporting errors from their operations.

Some operations will not set this property when reporting errors.

string
error_type
Required

Discriminator field to help API consumers identify the structure type.

For more information see: Vapi Std Errors Error Type.

This property was added in vSphere API 6.7.2.

Can be missing or null for compatibility with preceding implementations.
